Recenzii
Walker manages to provide a well-rounded account of the DC riots in a refreshingly concise monograph that may find its way into many undergraduate classrooms.
After providing a capsule history of Washington and a chronicle of the city's increasingly fractious race relations, the author provides a blow-by-blow breakdown of the riots, especially in the most fraught 48 hours or so from the evening of April 4.
Samuel Walker's "Most of 14th Street Is Gone" details the tick tock of events that occurred during the Washington, DC riots of 1968....Walker painstakingly retraces the steps and missteps, of those days that sent our nation's capital up in flames 50 years ago.
